The presence of water in fuel is another issue which can make your car not run smoothly and eventually stop, no matter the type of fuel used.

AdBlue is a diesel system additive that makes the engine run with less pollution. However, it should just be utilized by professionals who understand where and how to use it. If not, your vehicle will start running badly. To avoid any issues, AdBlue should be contained in a separate tank.

The signs of AdBlue contamination also include the car not running smoothly and eventually stopping. Good news is we are at all times ready to help. Our technicians are not just knowledgeable on how to deal with this issue but also on how to address the problem of incorrect fuel and water contamination.
